The fight turned into a bar fight. UFC banks on drama and shit talk and now Rogan and Dana are gonna be like, "oh this is so bad for the sport, why Khabib did this?" when they as promoters go along with this level of discourse for years. Khabib came to fight not to bitchfest, but I'm sure the UFC contracts say you have to go along with the shit talk. And this is the end result.

2018-10-07 05:16:51 UTC  

not quite following you there

If Khabib came to fight then why (reportedly) jump out of the cage and attack someone in the crowd?

2018-10-07 05:17:58 UTC  

Why couldn't they just have the fight event?

2018-10-07 05:18:47 UTC  

..what?

2018-10-07 05:20:53 UTC  

Do you see before the Olympics shit talk public events between strong opponents?....

2018-10-07 05:21:27 UTC  

So, where does the "sport" attribution fit in?

2018-10-07 05:21:46 UTC  

Ignoring for a moment that this isn't the Olympics, are you actually trying to argue that fight promotions shouldn't promote their fights?

You realise EVERY fight event has press conferences beforehand, right?

2018-10-07 05:21:52 UTC  

Fuck me, even Tennis and Formula One have them

2018-10-07 05:21:58 UTC  

Can a person participate in UFC brutal cage fighting without having to also learn shit talk martial arts?

2018-10-07 05:22:25 UTC  

I don't know if you're missing my point on purpose or what...

2018-10-07 05:22:36 UTC  

I still don't even know what your point is

2018-10-07 05:22:37 UTC  

Again, what does this have to do with Khabib jumping the cage and attacking someone in the crowd?

2018-10-07 05:22:56 UTC  

One thing is people speaking their mind before an event and that generating drama

2018-10-07 05:23:04 UTC  

If you're brand new to MMA or combat sports in general, then I might understand

2018-10-07 05:23:06 UTC  

the other is having a championship that has that by design

2018-10-07 05:23:08 UTC  

not chance or personal issues

2018-10-07 05:23:37 UTC  

Is English your first language? That might help me figure out how to interpret things

2018-10-07 05:24:47 UTC  

What happened with Khabib was bound to happen due to the way "the sport" is driven.

2018-10-07 05:24:50 UTC  

So having to reschedule their fight due to Conor spacking out and throwing a dolly at a bus was actually 'by design'?

2018-10-07 05:25:04 UTC  

`What happened with Khabib was bound to happen due to the way "the sport" is driven.`

2018-10-07 05:25:09 UTC  

lol, no it fucking wasn't

2018-10-07 05:25:21 UTC  

Even Ken Shamrock and Tito Ortiz didn't act like spastics post-fight

2018-10-07 05:25:39 UTC  

Dana White has been banking on Connor disrespect and drama generated from it

2018-10-07 05:25:53 UTC  

What Conor does is nothing new

2018-10-07 05:25:54 UTC  

at all

2018-10-07 05:25:58 UTC  

And now he's gonna act all surprised, "oh how did this happend"

2018-10-07 05:26:05 UTC  

And is absolutely nothing compared to boxing

2018-10-07 05:26:09 UTC  

`What Conor does is nothing new` Exactly

2018-10-07 05:26:16 UTC  

Exactly what?

2018-10-07 05:26:24 UTC  

Noone else has spazzed out post-fight like this

2018-10-07 05:27:01 UTC  

No one else acts like Connor over and over.

2018-10-07 05:27:14 UTC  

pfffffffffhahaha

2018-10-07 05:27:17 UTC  

If that's justifiable because he brings money in

2018-10-07 05:27:18 UTC  

absolute bullshit mate

2018-10-07 05:27:27 UTC  

Then this is the new standard set up by the new champion

2018-10-07 05:27:33 UTC  

clearly new to all this, aren't you

2018-10-07 05:27:40 UTC  

After the fight you can turn into a bar fight

2018-10-07 05:27:50 UTC  

yeah nah

2018-10-07 05:27:53 UTC  

Because champion

2018-10-07 05:29:49 UTC  

A good fighter should be able to just go in for the actual fight and not be contractually be forced to participate in such shit talk shows if it's not what is there for.

2018-10-07 05:30:44 UTC  

There *is* nothing in the contract that says you have to talk a certain way, bud
